ntpMerlin ntpMerlin - NTP Daemon for AsusWRT Merlin

[EmeraldDeer]

yes its wrong there as well and I am in Sydney Australia - looks like its an Asus bug

I do not believe Asus maintains a time zone database. It is on all of us to update timezone information in the web GUI. You can see the settings on the command line with "nvram get time_zone_x".
Mine is

EST5DST,M3.2.0/2,M11.1.0/2

Yours may be something like

AEST10AEDT,M10.1.0/2,M4.1.0/3

Hello.

I'm running 384.10_2, and noticed an issue where after applying settings that the page wouldn't refresh after the changes were made. After some troubleshooting I started removing the scripts that I have installed. I only use Skynet, and NTPmerlin (with entware just for NTPmerlin). After uninstalling NTPmerlin the issue went away. I tried it first since it affects the web interface with the page that it adds.

Has anyone else had this issue? Is there some kind of trick to get the page refresh working with it installed? I like it, and will continue to use it as I can just refresh the page manually but I'd like things to work as they should.

Thank you in advance for any help/advice.

I came on the forums and read through the DoT test build thread before coming here, and noticed that there were a couple of posts about this issue there as well with the test build.

A few of us have noticed this issue. The new builds seem to have broken something (javascript error I believe). @Jack Yaz is aware and hopes to look into it after his move. Please post over in this thread any relevant information, thanks!

Just wondering if this can work with the new merlin beta's built in NTP server or just leave that disabled and continue as is with this?

Once its released as stable, we'll see what it can support. I doubt it will support the full feature set of ntp.conf though

I left it off in Merlin, your builds got the option to force clients to use it without setting the routers IP, much more useful.

Forcing clients to use it is the best feature IMO. No need to reconfigure any devices. It also revealed to me how some devices like Amazon Echo behave so badly, constantly syncing time every few minutes.

Running ntpMerlin on my RT-AC68U and asuswrt-Merlin 384.10_2. Thanks @kvic and @Jack Yaz !

@Jack Yaz .....Now that Merlin has implmented NTPserver and redirect into Beta2 I'm curious if this script and that feature will clash or not. I like the graph (i'm a visual person), but mostly used this script for the redirect portion.

Just like with the Jack Yaz script, you have to manually enable it. So, unless you enable both, there should be no clashes.

No issues so far with any scripts and 384.11 Beta 2.

We'll find out when 384.11 is released as stable. @RMerlin has implemented a lot of what this script does though, so ntpmerlin may get scrapped as a result

Can someone running 384.11 beta 2 try removing my script, enabling merlins daemon, manually installing

 opkg install ntp-utils

and then try running

ntpq -4 -c rv

ntpq: read: Connection refused

So how to configure it without ntp.conf

Thanks for this. I'm going to see what options we have with merlin's guidance
